This may become the most infamous — and devastating — press conference ever held by an American President. pic.twitter.com/j4kKwyPDVm

Yeah, there’s been a strategic failure of epic proportions by our civilian establishment. We need to fix that at the ballot box by tossing out every Democrat and every Liz Cheney-esque combat tourist who delights in sending our young people overseas to get ground up in idiotic wars designed to enrich their cronies. Hardest hit at the end of Afghanistan: Haliburton, Raytheon, KBR, and a hundred other contractors you never heard of. Oh, and the Afghan people, but they never really figured into this calculus except in the abstract idea that we were going to convert a nation of savages into Lil’ Vermonters living the Norman Rockwell dream of community democracy
Twenty years of failure. Twenty years. How far and fast we fell. I was there thirty years ago, in VII Corps main, contributing my car washing skills, when the greatest military force in human history annihilated a country’s entire army in 100 hours and barely broke a sweat doing it. Amazingly, we did it without giving a single thought to our alleged privilege – to the extent cracking over reeking half-barrels in wooden outhouses in the middle of the desert constituted privilege.
Look at us now. Look at the generals, in their stupid throwback uniforms from the Forties that are supposed to make the gender studies seminar we call the US Army think it’s the same force that broke Hitler. It’s not. A serious organization does not alternate its designation of America’s most serious threat between the weather, “racism,” and other Americans who dissent from the generals’ bosses’ political priorities.
The Navy is busy smashing ships into each other, or letting them burn, but it will tell you it’s the most effective, lethal fighting force ever. Baloney. It’s glided along on its WW2 legacy as well for going onto a century. It imagines that its glorious naval tradition is going to compensate for the fact that the Chinese are actually building combat-ready ships and learning how to use them. The Carthaginians were like that too – fat, smug, and eager to sacrifice their children to Moloch, just like our garbage elite. The Romans, who had no naval tradition, took one of their boats and copied it. Sound familiar? Then they built a navy. Also ring a bell? Then the Romans cleared the seas of Carthaginians and went on to rule the world for another 500+ years while Carthage’s field can still provide for all your sodium chloride needs.
Go here to read the rest. The only good thing about a defeat is the opportunity to learn from it. I fear however that our so-called elites, in and out of uniform, are ineducable.
Main Stream Media Press Conference: “Mr. President, did you obtain assurances that the Taliban will address people by their preferred pronouns.?” [seen on Instapundit]
Joe, the smiling salesman, Biden. That’s the kind of leadership that inspires people to insurrection.
It leaves one wondering how soon he will be allowing the CCP Navy to conduct war games with Russia off of our coastlines.
He will be telling you that there isn’t any reason to fear.
He will say that while his off shore
accounts swell with new reserves deposited by his Chinese pals.
A great reset? Joe is all in!
Sadly, our leadership is as stupid as it is mendacious. I can only hope that the midterm elections are a drubbing for these people.
Impeach Joe. Fire all the rest SECDEF SECSTATE DIR INTELL CIA JCS, All the Heads of the Armeds Forces.
Wars are sometimes necessary but even a necessary war conducted without a moral context and purpose is doomed to fail. Those who mean evil in the world have taken note and there is little doubt we shall soon hear from them.
